A new independent furniture business has launched in Cullingworth, West Yorkshire.

M&C Home Furnishings, run by business partners and best friends of 40 years Michele Dematteis and Chris Maddocks, has opened a store at Cullingworth Mills.

The store features furnishings from sofas and rugs to dining tables and chairs, with the business creating two jobs for the local area too.

Commenting on the launch, M&C Home Furnishings said: “After weeks of endless hard work, we can officially say we are open! We are beyond happy with the end result and hope you all are too!

“If you are visiting Cullingworth Mills, we would love to see you. Another massive thank you to everyone who has helped and supported us over these past few weeks. We couldn’t have done this without you!”
